1) You say you got flack for all those calls to get guys gone, but was the flack over your desire to get them gone, or the timing of your call to be rid of them? If the near-immediate response to any draft/hire/signing is "Fire [insert name here]" before they have a chance to prove their merit, then yeah, you're gonna catch heat.

2) I haven't seen anyone 'beating their Chest' over the horseshoe game. It was great to see, and has just as much potential to be the team's future as did the Pats game. I don't know anyone here that is saying all our troubles are gone because R1P1 had a 2/0 TD/INT game. Maybe I glossed over those posts. Is it wrong if fans of the team don't see encouragement that the team (and players individually) performed well in a game that meant everything to the opposition?

3) You're right, none of us know. Some of us look to see the glass half full, and hope to see it fill some more. Others choose to see it half empty and scramble to find any leak they can to deem the situation a lost cause. It's not that there isn't doubt. Every single prospect can fail. Many of them can be successful, too! Some may require some patches in the form of scheme, supporting cast, or training, but it's wise to at least try some of those fixes before you scrap everything and start fresh. The vast majority of the board are in wait and see mode, not some blind rejection that flaws aren't present. Every single QB in the history of this league has had flaws to overcome. Manning wasn't going to scramble for first downs. Brees was short. Favre threw picks trying to make big throws. Not saying TLaw will be anywhere near as good as these guys, but perfection is not the standard, and that's the point of all this. If you expect perfection to deem someone a franchise QB, you'll never find one. Sometimes damn good is good enough to get you where you want to go.

Go have a cold one please.  Youre talking calculus with pre algebra students.  Ill watch out for the foster kids if they come by the thread talking bs again
